You may be correct about this. We've used electric almost the entire time we've had this unit and the one before. Will be interesting to see how many others have experienced the same thing...

Sorry to learn of your problem. We've used ours for 6 years plus now - constantly (we're full-time) and it's still going. We've changed the anode rod as needed also, check it twice a year. Will be keeping a close eye out for leakage. Our previous rig also had a Suburban water heater, it went 10...

Got mine here: http://www.makariosrv.com/d-seal-for-ekd-base-black-018-312-ekd/ Shipped fast, least expensive I could find. Hope this helps...

Had similar problem. Removed trap and found it clogged with junk (soap scum, dirt, hair, etc.). Took outside, flushed with hose (do so carefully or you may end up with it on you). Re-installed (hand tighten). Drains normally again. This was a build up after 4 years of full-timing in this rig...

We've had both in our rigs over the years. If you have the room and don't mind a little more weight added to your rig, go with the Splendide Ariston Stackables. By far the fastest way to get clothes washed, then dried. The combo we had (also Splendide) did the job, but it seem to take forever...

Our 2008 has this problem. Seems no improvements for several years, even though it's been reported via this forum. Emailed factory early on, sent us kit for repair. This just prolonged it until warranty is long over. We now have severe edge damage to plywood on front of main glide, such that the...

Ours were replaced under warranty by Lippert, also - same result. The 7k have held up well for the past 3 years with no issues. Still show the same arc as when installed. The Lippert tech was the one who recommended these when he saw the original. Guess they (Lippert) realized that original...

Could be the vacuum valve under the bathroom sink, located off the drain pipe via a "T" connection. Could account for both of your problems...

Don't know if this is the same problem as yours, but this DID happen to us. The water supply valve had gone bad and was allowing water into the bowl. Ours is a Sealand 210 and was less then 2 years old when it happened. We now carry an extra valve with us, however, will not stop from overflowing...

I concur with above, dealer looks to be the problem. I ordered parts from factory, got them a few days later. No problems with order or packaging.

Did you replace the head or the whole assembly?

Thanks for the quick reply, now all I've got to do is convince the DW, she thinks I've spent enough time under the trailer. Just finished putting on heavy duty shackles and wet bolt kit.

Anyone with the knowledge. Do the front jacks fit the same brackets and stops as the original, or do you need to weld/bolt new bracket/stop locations? Thanks.

Have had both combo and now have stack. By far, the stack is the best option (for us). The combo took a long time to dry clothes. What a difference now. Yes, too many seedy laundromats! You never know what's been in the machines. From horse hair, to being used for dying clothes (think pink!) No...

Replaced ours with a single fixture we had over our desk. Wasn't direct replacement, mounted it on hood slightly in front of and above old light, wired to switch on hood panel, left fixture in on position. Out of sight and not noticeable except DW can now see what's on the stove. Replaced the...

Possibly the nut on the shaft is coming loose. This happened to us. Replaced with nut that had nylon insert (both ends). No more problems. Hope this helps...

We're in our 11th year of full-time and on our 2nd rig (Bighorn) and have the original lube disc with no sign of wearing through. Safe travels...

Had to replace the plywood bottom on the dining room, original was warped so bad it was 2" lower on the curb side. Re-did cable/satellite connections, wired wrong at factory. Re-hung light behind chair on DS, was not even close to being same height as other, could have changed either one. I...

All the best Larry, our prayers and thoughts are with you!!

There's a lot of us interested in this, I think. A while back Jim said that Lippert was looking into this and he'd let us know. Hopefully we'll find out soon?

Since we are Escapees, we would stay in Deming at the Dream Catcher RV Park, and then at the Ranch in Lakewood, NM (about 25 miles from Carlsbad).

I mounted mine to the right side of the current breakers (your set up may be different). Used the original breaker wire as the output, had a 4-0 wire available in the tool box to finish the job for the hot side. Left the original breaker as it was, just not connected at the output. Hope this...

I bought mine here. Brand new, fast service, worked for me. Hope this helps...

I'll state the obvious, it could be a circuit breaker, or the line cord was never plugged in. Hopefully it's not that as you'll have to undo the bulkhead to get in behind it. On ours you can remove the circuit breaker panel and reach in there, but be forewarned it's a tangled web going in that...

He's a traveling tech out of Phoenix, AZ. Not sure all the states he covers, but he mentioned AZ, NV, CA, NM for sure. He's very good and takes the time to listen and explain everything he's doing or will do and then tells you to call him if there are any problems. Those of us in the West are...

I just wanted to let everyone concerned know that Lippert has come through for us once again. We were on our third motor for the front jacks and we were finally able to determine that there was more to the problem. Our jacks had a range of only about 6 inches before the motor started bogging...

This was the case for us as well. While I would definitely get it fixed under warranty, if possible, what we did was go to a local Lumber/Hardware Store and spent under $10 for a piece of finished plywood (4' x 4'). Replaced the badly warped piece that is attached to the pedestal, took about an...

Absolutely, I agree, this is the way to go, all the parts are new, and the price is close enough to make the difference worth while. The brakes need to be adjusted as well. This is a lot easier and less expensive in the long run than buying a piece at a time which will likely end up being the...

Just another item to add to the information/confusion. When we were looking at full-timing we asked a lot of full-timers about this very thing. Several said, go as frugal (cheap) as you can, you'll wear them out in about the same length of time whether they're high priced or low priced. Where we...

Why not give Lippert or Heartland a call, they will need the below and should be able to tell you with no problem. My last e-mail from Lippert included the following: Last 8 digits of the VIN number, Date of Manufacture, Date of Purchase, Make, and Model. For axle issues, please also include...

We have been full-timing for 10 years and decided on our Bighorn 2 years ago. This is our 2nd rig since starting this lifestyle. We used our previous rig for week-ends and vacations for 1 year, before going full-time. It served us well, and we could have gotten several more years out of it, but...

My fuse/holder was located near the raise/lower switch. This is on the other side away from the motor, so you might want to look in that direction...

Pat, Could you please PM me about prices, also. Thanks.

Mine looks the same also.

Hi everybody, Thanks to LarryHeadhunter's post, I was able to contact Lippert, about our springs and motor on our jacks. We have a 2008 BH 3400RL with 6k axles. Weight well within tolerances. Lippert had already replaced our front jack motor when the unit was 10 months old to us. About 10...

On ours you remove the 4 screws that are behind the wood plugs. You can then remove the wood frame. This gives you access to everything else covered in the manual. Not hard to do. Hope this helps...
